Autopilot brownies

Posted by Chris Anderson on January 18, 2010 at 9:40pm

The reflow oven went haywire at DIY Drones HQ, and these melted ArduPilot Megas are the result. That's one batch of beta testers who are just going to have to wait a bit longer for their gear :-(

I prefer black PCB's they usually follow this rule of thumb.

Red ones go faster, black ones are more reliable and beige ones are beige.
